Speaker: Assassination attempt on Trump highlights October elections as decisive moment for Georgia

Georgian Parliament Speaker Shalva Papuashvili has commented on the recent assassination attempt on former US President Donald Trump, linking it to the upcoming October 26 elections in Georgia. Papuashvili’s remarks were shared on social media, where he stressed the significance of the elections, calling them a “watershed between war and peace.”

Papuashvili expressed his concerns about the potential consequences if the opposition, whom he referred to as “foreign-ruled individuals,” were to gain power. He warned that this could lead to national embarrassment, internal chaos, economic collapse, and widespread violence in Georgia. “Everywhere and always remember Georgia,” he urged.
